[scottburrow]

Congrats fractal for another win!

 

[AdamCook]

Nice. Did they use it on the re-recordings of Rock of Ages and Pour Some Sugar that they just put out?

 

[winger]

Another great addition to the stable. Congrats FAS !

 

[Phostenix]

my god can the tonight show link have longer commercials... so far going on 2 minutes.

Ridiculous. 2 full 30 second spots. OK, now pick an ad that you want to watch. OK, now, do you want to watch that ad again? OK, 5 second tease for the content you actually want to see, and now, another 30 second spot.

Is Phil a FRFR guy or amp/cab ?

 

[CodePoet]

Sounded pretty good - wonder what amps he likes to use on the Axe...

 

[kmanick]

that sounded pretty damn good, I wonder what the actual entire rig consisted of,
that even sounded a bit "heavier" than I 've heard Phil in the past.
Sweet!

 

[kelso1]

sounded good!
goodbye JMP-1, hello Axe II!
Congrats to Fractal!

 

[gittarzann]

Nice addition to the Fractal family...congrats Cliff and team !

In the video, it seems like his volume was messed up part of the time...I wonder what was causing that.

 

[symphx]

cool, but the singers voice is shot....and what a waste of talent for viv. campbell, he was awesome and could blow phil collen away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Scott Peterson]

Very cool. Phil rocks!!! Appleton is a great tech and guitarist himself too.

 

[Rick]

Love it! Phil's a great player, still looks like he did 20 years ago... I sure can't say that. lol

 

[willowdale]

I am happy for Viv Campbell making some good Leppard money, but what a waste of an amazing guitar player. I understand why he must backup Phil Collen in Leppard but Viv is soooooooo much better!!

Congrats on Phil using the Axe-II, and it would be really great if he shared some of those Leppard presets.

High n Dry with Pete Willis & Steve Clarke is still by far my favorite by them but I appreciate some of the more polished hits also

Wow, vocal aint good. Guitars sounded great.
